Rumor: iPhone 4 Production Resumed

According to the Economic Times, Apple has restarted production of the iPhone 4 for sale in India, Indonesia, and Brazil.

Apple Still Grumpy Over Antitrust Monitor

According to Reuters, Apple is continuing its fight to have its court-appointed antitrust monitor put on hold until the court can hear the company’s case as to why its hurting Apple’s business.

Legal watchers claim that the court doesn’t seem eager to change the terms of monitor, Michael Bromwich’s role but for now, his work is on hold until the court issues a ruling. Apple hopes that the court will make the suspension longer as it argues to remove the monitor all together.

Apple’s interest in healthcare technology might be accelerating as a new rumor suggests that Apple hired Dr. Roy J.E.M. Raymann, a sleep expert who has contributed much research to the field of sleep study.

CEO Tim Cook Visits Turkey Again

Apple CEO Tim Cook met with Turkish President Adbullah Gül and confirmed plans for an Apple flagship store in Istanbul. Apple watchers believed that the meeting was to discuss the possible $3 to $4 billion FAITH initiative that would bring ebooks running on iPads to Turkish schoolchildren but it doesn’t appear that the project was discussed.

Instead, the president asked Cook to make an investment into the country by opening a base of operation there.
